The Secret Garden
Last Days of an Exotic World, 1902
When President Theodore Roosevelt moved into the White House he brought his large family and their many pets, including a macaw named Eli Yale and a cat, Tom Quartz. His son Kermit would one day explore the Amazon rainforests of Brazil, a much bigger jungle than those in the White House greenhouses, torn down in 1902 to build an office annex that evolved into the West Wing. |
